faces

[low_delta]

How come whenever someone thinks they can make out a face in a random interplay of light and form, they always say it's either Jesus, his mother or the devil? What's up with that? I've always had to deal with the jesus thing, because I have long hair and a beard. Ethnicity aside, do I really even look like the sterotypical version of Our Saviour? Not much. It's just the hair. So why is it that a feminine face is equated with Mary? What the heck did she look like, anyway?

You've probably heard about this grilled cheese sandwich. I wonder when the lady decided the image looked like The Virgin Mary. She saw the face immediately, and put it away. I guess the fact that after ten years, that there's no mold on it means that it really is Her? I dont think it looks like Mary. I think it looks like a different famous person.

Mary Pickford, maybe (http://silentladies.com/Pickford/Pick56.jpg). Dietrich, yeah. BVM, not so much.

I think she looks kinda like this "enthralled" mood icon of mine:

The fact that there's no mold makes me wonder what kind of oil and cheese she used. Yuck.

wonderbread and velveeta slices

Ha Ha! I'll bet you're right!

I was thinking it probably looked like Jim Morrison! (Doors)

LOL......the image i see on that sandwich is a little dwarf giving me the finger....but, then again, i'm not looking for the virgin mary, or any other mary, for that matter.....

i've purchased some bleu cheese for finger food for Thanksgiving.....i'm thinking that we can develop a party game that revolves around the "images" we see in the cheese.....

should we see the virgin mary, we will be quick to exploit the experience and offer the cheese slice on E-Bay ASAP!......if it's divine providence that that i gain cash from the experience, so be it!

I think the cheese sandwich image seems to be wearing lipstick. Did Mary wear lipstick? If she did, did she have to make it herself?

For that matter, now I'm curious about when people first started using something to redden their lips.

Hahahahaha! Oh mom, you slay me.

seriously. this is not my usual comment stuff, but real.
I woke up one morning to see mother theresa in the morning sunlight and shadow pattern of a pair of rolled up knee socks. everyone else saw it, too, after they laid in exactly the same spot where I was. and now that I think of it, that's probably why I didn't report it to anybody. you know, I don't want everybody and their brother traipsing into my bedroom and laying on my side of the bed to see mother theresa.
unfortunately, it was before I had a digital camera, and I had no film at the time.
but the story did survive. one of amy's friends wrote it up for an english assignment as if it had been her discovery. plagiarist kids.

Still a cool visual effect, though. I can understand why the cook wouldn't want to eat it. Sort of hard to eat grilled cheese with a human face on it.

I'd find it tough to destroy an image like that. But I think taking a picture would suffice.

What, no Cheese Shrine?

[low-delta.livejournal.com]

I live in Wisconsin, where cheese is meant to be eaten, not enshrined.

Well, there is the Mars Cheese Castle (it's just north of the Bong Recreational Facility on 94).

Nice store, suprisingly. It looks like it would be some goddawful tourist trap.
